Thermage vs. Ultherapy

Thermage and Ultherapy are non-invasive procedures that tighten and firm skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. While both Thermage and Ultherapy stimulate collagen production to improve skin laxity, they use different technologies to do so. Thermage stimulates collagen using radio-frequency energy. Ultherapy stimulates collagen by using ultrasound energy.

Ultherapy is ideal for muscular lifting of loose or sagging skin around the brow, chin, and neck. Thermage is ideal for tightening skin and plumping up areas that have experienced volume loss.

One big advantage Thermage has over Ultherapy is a wider range of treatment areas. While Ultherapy is approved to lift skin around the brow, chin, neck and chest, Thermage can tighten skin and diminish fine lines and wrinkles from the facial area, the abdomen, the thighs, around the knees, the hands and more.

Thermage is also able to treat areas of the eye that Ultherapy cannot, such as the upper eyelid.

If you are contemplating between Thermage or Ultherapy, remember that these two skin tightening and skin lifting treatments work very well together. Many patients receive both treatments, including Botox, Dermal Fillers, and Laser Skin Resurfacing to achieve optimal anti-aging effects.

Why is Thermage called a non surgical Facelift?

Thermage is a good option for men and women suffering from mild skin laxity and superficial fine lines and wrinkles. A face lift is a cosmetic surgery that may be considered when treating severe skin laxity. During a face lift, a plastic surgeon uses fat pads to restore volume loss, and may tighten skin with surgical incisions that leave “short scars” in front of the ears, behind the hair line.

Thermage vs eyelid surgery

Thermage is often compared to a Blepharoplasty, (eyelid surgery) because Thermage can improve sagging eyelids with out invasive surgeries, scalpels, and lengthy recovery times. Eye lid surgery, or a Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin from sagging eye lids. Individuals may prefer a less invasive treatment such as Thermage, to modestly improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and tighten, firm, or plump moderately loose or sagging skin.
